    She kept the sweetness of Dolly's version, while including the power of Whitney's version, and all while making this performance distinctly Kelly. Just stunning.

    This was a perfect tribute. Kelly has the rare required combination of the pipes, the control, and the humility needed to pay tribute to both Dolly and Whitney, two of the greatest the world has ever and will ever see. She didn't try to outdo Whitney in vocal acrobatics (I liked her understated, lower "please" before "don't you cry" - it was a perfect moment to leave space for us to hear Whitney's almost whistle note "please" in our memories) but she paid her respect by nailing a couple of Whitney's key vocal choices and making other parts almost conversational sing-song the way Dolly's version does. So many artists take an opportunity like this to make it about themselves, and Kelly always steps up to the moment with humility and grace. Love her.

Well, she IS one of the world's best singers, with a nearly 20-year career and millions of records sold to prove that. She also proves that less is more, as this scintillating take on a standard proves. With piano, acoustic guitar and her searing, keening voice, Kelly reaches through time and space to make the listener FEEL and THINK.

    Moments befor this performance, Kelly got a text from her lawyer saying the dovorced is finalized, both parties signed. I think this was a final goodbye and it was beautiful, a real moment in time for Kelly. So raw and emotional.

    I feel like she’s singing straight from the heart. Besides her massive amount of talent, that’s my favorite thing about her.

    There’s not one song this beautiful woman can’t sing. Period…. Her voice is so amazing

    There used to be only two people who should ever sing this song; Dolly and Whitney. Now, it is official that there is three. Kelly did this song an incredible justice.

    I can’t think of any attempt at this song that’s better than this. It’s like she did Dolly first, then did Whitney’s. A+++ She should have released this. It’s that good.

    This was absolutely beautiful! She held our attention on every word. With all she has been through the past year I don't know how she kept it together. She has enormous strength and a big heart! Love you ...Kelly Clarkson...you are an inspiration to others!

    You can feel the emotion in this song and she really didn't over-do it with her power, which was perfect. She let the song itself be the star. Kelly is a phenomenal artist. One of the greats of our time!
